U.S. Politics

What’s the specific condition that’s been breached in this instance?

This not about freedom of speech at all.
If our government (or president) believes a person’s speech or behaviour is doing anything harmful to our country/national security, they will do something.

I did not comment or say Khalil said/did anything wrong, even I think Trump is a jerk/asshole.
Nothing about freedom of speech and no need to abuse the term “freedom of speech”.

Many times China/PRC accused U.S. has double standard on freedom of speech but we know those are bullshit.

To be fair, within a couple of hours of playing Tropico 4 I’d sacked my cabinet for showing dissent and had the news anchor at the national broadcaster shot because they didn’t agree with my policies.

So while I may be a real-world leftie snowflake, there’s an inner dictator inside.

Vote for me, or else.

From the Guardian 24 Sept 2009
“Despite the mind-numbing length of his speech Gaddafi failed to break the all time record set by Cuban leader Fidel Castro in 1960, at four and a half hours.”

A harsh review but I do think most of the humour is lost in translation.

It’s been said by many that the U.N. exists to maintain western dominance over developing nations.

I saw this first hand while doing monitoring and evaluations for a nonprofit organization in a certain African country where U.N. peacekeepers had a major presence. They rode around in their modified Landcruisers, wearing heavy military gear, trying to look important while doing nothing for people who were actually suffering.

I think the past ten years have really exposed the U.N., NATO, World Bank etc for what they are.

Trump could end up being one of the last world leaders to have the honour of meeting the King. It’ll be Mexico next. The thin skin king in the White House will not be amused.

Republicans are going to get a hiding in the mid terms and trump will lose the next election.

He’s doing a shit job so far and his peace initiative is falling because he took adelson dirty money

Not if the Democrats have anything to do with it.

Anyone seen the JFK files?

As in, read them?

Na but I’m interested if any new information is discovered.

I’m sure all the juicy documents were disposed of long ago.

I assume not because all I’m hearing/seeing is people saying “hey, they released the JFK files” and then the convo seems to end without anyone referring to a single thing that has been released.

Mafia state.

*Edit: fixed it for me.

This can’t be how it is now, we’ve definitely got to be living in a simulation and some little prick kid is fucking with us.

Delighted to see that Vance is one of those in the mud on this.
